Patrick Bamford

[Unionjack 7,531]

I don't understand why we should go out and buy a new striker. Costa, Remy and Bamford would be the perfect trio for our attack. Remy is more than capable of being the 2nd striker at Chelsea whilst Bamford would get to train and occasionally play with our big stars. He would be under the management of Mourinho, Drogba and Eva, what else can a 20-year old kid ask?

Loans can be beneficial but they can also be destructive. With the money going around in the game these days, the clubs will be constantly looking at players as assets and a kid who isn't even part of the club certainly has not got the priority at that club. What if next year he is loaned to a club like West Brom where they then decide to play their own striker, what is that going to do to Bamford's future? Just look at what happened to Kalas. De Bruyne knew this and therefore wanted a permanent transfer.

Its not a case of wanting to go buy a new striker (although we do need one) Its a case of only having 2 to choose from. Like has been said Bamford will more than likely goto Boro if they get promotion. IF we did decide to keep him here he wouldnt get the game time he wants so he wouldnt want to stay. so the best bet for both parties (us and PB) is to sell him to Boro. I couldnt guess what we could get for him if tha time came tho.

As for Remy I dont see him staying neither. I dont really see Mou having much faith in him. Theres been many times where he could have had more playing time but Mous just not put him on. And hes not really made the most of those chances hes had. Although he has done really all we have asked of him as a 3rd striker.

Its difficult as a 1 striker playing club as any striker of real note wants to be playing games and not happy warming he bench so attracting them isnt easy (unless theyre happy just to get the wage)

It would be nice to sign a more prolific scorer as a 2nd choice. Well we need a couple of upgrades I suppose.

Unless my memory is failing, the lad has scored in pretty much every game he has been in the starting XI.

Sitting on a bench game after game can also be destructive.

As I put hes done really all we have asked from him.

So theres got to be some reason why hes not been put in more as theres been alot of chances. I like the lad and although I will admit to being against us signing him pre season and wanted Bony instead Im glad we went this way. Like I said for a 3rd striker hes done great. 3 goals in 3 starts/9 appearances you cant complain at that. Id like to see more of him.

Really liked this part:

"I was going to stay there this season, that was the original plan, but when the chance to bring Didier back arrives, you can’t really turn down Drogba, can you?"

Seems, then, there's a good chance he'll be here next season.

That second was sublime, should of had four but MOTM for the lad.

Well done.

oh I see, the kid some blokes were trying to convince us has nothing on Kane in terms of technical ability scores those two goals... and scores very often. Yeah, seems another Torres in the coming

Seems, then, there's a good chance he'll be here next season.

yeah, reading the last couple of pages, I don't get where people got the idea he would be sold to Boro? There were no links, just assumptions. Either way I hope this clears everything up. It came straight from him.
